AltMM 2017 -- 2^nd International Workshop on Multimedia Alternate Realities

ABSTRACT

AltMM 2017, the 2^nd International Workshop on Multimedia Alternate Realities at ACM Multimedia aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners concerned with multimedia that enables experiencing "alternate realities". Such experiences may allow us to access other worlds, to live other people's stories, to communicate with or experience alternate realities. Different spaces, times or situations can be entered thanks to multimedia contents and systems, which coexist with our current reality, and are sometimes so vivid and engaging that we feel we are living in them. Advances in multimedia are making it possible to create immersive experiences that may involve the user in a different or augmented world, as an alternate reality.
